movies

move

my life

my way

I watch the picture

The way it stares

At me 

My great big hair

Surrounds the screen

I scream

spill popcorn

The ants come crawling

They’re at my feet

My hands

watch your hands

Holding each other

Hold me like 

you hold yourself

Hold me 

with 

your loving mouth

Someone is on stage in my living room 

Crying their eyes out 

We are looking at each other 

i am saying, 

i hear you i see you i know you 

they are saying 

I hear you i see you i know

You

Are at the movies

I 

am combing my hair

In bed

Watching a sheet i hung over lace curtains

I am wearing lace

My projector plays thirteen

Plays new moon

Plays pieces of april

I sit still until

I move, she moves

I listen, she listens

The screen and i 

Think the same 

Lines
